K404 Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Thanks! Otto Fatboy. Not running dry, but not brimmed with LN2 Gelid GC-Extreme, -170ishhhhh pot base. Over 2V the temps were....a bit of a challenge up to 1.90-1.95v pot base was around -174 I livestreamed this session and literally NO-ONE was watching...at ANY point I had 8232MHz (can be seen on Livestream) but it crashed during validation.

TaPaKaH Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 you should have tuned the SetFSB for smaller steps, this chip doesn't like when you change freq by more than 10MHz at one time still, nice to know that the validation is not corrupt Quote
Hondacity Posted September 20, 2011 Author Posted September 20, 2011 I would have watched if I would have known! I'm a k404 fan! duhh! no k404 benching notification option from hwbot Quote
ARandomOWL Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Well maybe if you let me know, I would have popped in and thrown some abuse at you Very well done mate Shame you didn't get the other validation. Would have taken you to bronze!! Quote
Hyperhorn Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Congrats, great Cedar Mill overclocking! Quote
K404 Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 (edited) Oh yea! I forgot.... I had SetFSB problems.... it would error out at any random point from 333 to 342.... so in "desperation" I booted at 333 and went to 342 in one go. I'd already seen 342FSB, I knew the CPU was good for it..... It was fine at the MHz, I just couldn't increase it any more (without reboot) Maybe if I rebenched I could get lucky and slowly increase to... something like 338 without error then jump to 343. I had 5L of LN2 to get this result, so couldn't mess around Thanks for the comments guys! LOl Honda.... ok..... if all goes to plan, i'm benching GTX580 on October 1st. Got a mate coming over to help pour coz it's eating a litre a minute Edited September 20, 2011 by K404 Quote
Dualist Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Congrats Kenny.! If you would have posted or linked, guys would have watched, no-one is telepathic. Quote
TaPaKaH Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Tune the clock generator settings in SetFSB so that you go by 0.4MHz FSB and do the switches real slow (once per 20-30s). Yes, it eats LN2 but that's just how this CPU works best. I can't remember having it past 8120MHz using >10MHz steps. Quote
K404 Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Congrats Kenny.!If you would have posted or linked, guys would have watched, no-one is telepathic. My netbook doesn't have the power to check so I didn't know for sure, but I figured there would be a "x broadcasting now" on HWB front page and at least *someone* would see who it was Quote
placid Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 It's time to try with Liquid Hell ium Quote
Gamer Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 Great score Kenny !!! Maybe that's why the server has crashed ? Quote
Crew Turrican Posted September 21, 2011 Crew Posted September 21, 2011 well done kenny, you are the man. Quote
